Scrappy Rainbow Quilt

I'm still working my way through my abundance of scraps. This one is fun - I always like when a rainbow is on the diagonal. The colors scraps are cut 2.5 x 3.5 so I used my 2.5" strips for this quilt. I also used some scraps of Kona snow cut to 1.5" x 6.5". 


So many yummy fabrics! I found this arrow print in my stash of backing fabrics. Not my favorite I must say, but everything else I had didn't go at all.

The binding was a challenge. Usually I would have gone with snow, but the back is whiter than the front so neither white or snow was going to work. I tried blue and red, but didn't like those either. My husband came to my rescue and told me to try purple. Yep, I like this purple. 


 Summer is the perfect season for a happy rainbow quilt. Especially since we have had so. much. rain. I'm not really ready for the hot weather, but at least the rain is finally done and spring was cool.  I'm happy for any time I get to spend in my sewing room no matter the weather!
